This is a lot of charging power in a portable package, but it still folds into its carry bag when the job is done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are trying to recharge a larger power station during an outage, at an RV site, or off-grid, this is the panel that makes sense.

Never exceed the receiving device's solar-input limits. Series wiring raises voltage; parallel wiring raises current. Cold weather can also raise panel voltage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReal-world output:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solar-panel wattage is a laboratory rating.

Match the voltage range, maximum open-circuit voltage, current limit, wattage limit, connector, and polarity before connecting it. An adapter may be required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat connector does it use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PECRON PV500 uses MC4 connectors. Check the input on your power station before ordering an adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill it always produce its rated wattage?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo portable panel produces its nameplate rating all day. For the strongest output, point the entire panel directly at clear sun, keep every section unshaded, and reposition it as the sun moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I leave it outside in the rain?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe panel carries an IP67 rating, but portable panels and connectors should not be submerged or left sitting in water. Keep connections dry, close unused ports, and let everything dry before folding and storing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I connect more than one panel?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly if the final array stays within your power station or charge controller's voltage, current, and wattage limits.
